STUDENT GLOGS
1. Students log in tohttp:edu.glogster.com.
2. Click on the LOG IN link in the upper‐right corner of the page.
3. Upon entering the Web site, the students should click on Edit My Profile.
4. When the EDIT MY PROFILE box opens, the students should type their full name in the text box. Although they cannot change their “nicknames”, if they do this, the student’s name will appear with the link to their glog access on the teacher’s page. It’s a good idea to have a log where students can write their nickname next to their real name. Students can also change their password from the one created by Glogster. They should change it to one they remember.

remain square. You cannot pull the sides to make it rectangular. To create text with no box or
frame around it, choose “Basic Text,” “Basic bubble” or “Basic Title.” Adjust the font
size from the TEXT EDIT box so that all text is visible. Some textboxes allow a great deal of text to be entered, and have a scroll bar on the right side to use during presentations.
